Patient on mobile dental unit

Help us change lives through dental care

Dentaid The Dental Charity provides dental care and oral health advice for people experiencing homelessness, harm, poverty and abuse.

Our mobile dental units travel the UK providing outreach dental clinics for the most vulnerable people in our communities.

We help people at risk of health inequalities who’ve been living with the misery of toothache and restore their self-esteem by giving them more confidence in their smile. We know that oral healthcare can help our patients move on to a new chapter in their lives.

Our impact

Just to be in a dentists’ chair for the first time in more than a decade is a big step for me, to be able to sit in there and explain what’s wrong. The staff were welcoming and caring thank you.” - Sam, Dentaid patient in Winchester
